If the handle on the outside is wiggled, does the handle on the inside also wiggle? If so you could put a loosely touching circuit across the handle and base so that the circuit is either opened or closed upon a wiggle. You could also utilize ...

Re: Wirelessly controlling GPIO pins with CGI

Start by installing Joan's excellent pigpiod (which let's you wiggle gpios pins without using sudo).

Work from there to get a CGI program running in your web server to send commands to pigpiod.

Re: I2C: What am I missing?

If you're seeing the SDA and SCL lines wiggle, it might be worth taking a capture and uploading it so that people can see what's going wrong. Is the sent address wrong? Is the device not responding? What's the difference in the rev1 and rev2 waveforms?

Re: 3 Raspberries out of 15 have issues with Ethernet port

Having looked at the case design again, maybe a short strip of sticky-back draught excluder tape stuck inside the end of the 'bulge' that accommodates the card might do the trick. If it's permanently gently pushing on the end of the card, it's more likely to wiggle tight than wiggle loose. ;)
